Trustees
As an independent charity established since 2002, registered with the Charity Commission, The Autumn Centre is overseen and managed by a Board of Trustees.
Trustees are elected by the Annual General Meeting and exercise the Centre's legal responsibilities. Trustees meet every month, record minutes and produce the annual report and accounts.
The Board of Trustees work closely with the Centre Manager to:
- Develop the Centre programme to match the varying needs of our members.
- Ensure consistent standards of good practise, wellbeing and safety including a full programme of staff training and Centre policies in line with Public Health guidelines.
- Promote the Centre through local relationships, online and offline media
- Oversee the Charity's current and developing budget, including fund raising.
All trustees are volunteers and elected annually at the Annual General Meeting.
Officers elected in March 2025:
Chair: Jonathan Sheldon
Vice Chair: Diane Floody
Company Secretary and Treasurer: Peter Floody MBE
